Travis Scott Won't Face Criminal Charges For Astroworld Tragedy

Reports have surfaced that Travis Scott won't be facing criminal charges over the Astroworld tragedy that took place in 2021, where 10 people died.  Over a year after the deadly crowd surge, a grand jury has decided the outcome after viewing and hearing evidence from prosecutors, issuing six no-bills, which means there will be no criminal charges filed. Before the hearing, an attorney for Travis stated, "nothing Travis did or failed to do fits within the Texas criminal code." After the ruling, the attorney said the decision "confirms what we have known all along—that Travis Scott is not responsible for the Astroworld tragedy." "Now that this chapter is closed, we hope for the government efforts to focus on what is most important—stopping future heartbreaking tragedies like AstroWorld from ever occurring again." Back in November 2021, 10 concertgoers, the youngest, nine-year old Ezra Blount, died after an incident took place during Travis' concert.

All I care about is keeping everyone safe. So, if you ever don’t feel safe, please let someone around you know. There’s security everywhere tonight. If anyone’s pushing too much or you just have that gut feeling or anything. Always flag it.” “Don’t throw things. I always want shows of mine — every show, for every artist, but I’m in control of this one — I just want it to be a safe place for everyone. We have little kids here. Can you help me do that tonight, please?” This incident took place just

Pete Davidson In Rehab Following Mental Health Issues

Pete Davidson has entered rehab following struggles surrounding PTSD and borderline personality disorder.  The admission comes just weeks after an angry, explicit voicemail was left by Pete for the Senior Vice President of cruelty investigations at PETA, Daphna Nachminovitch. The voicemail was in response to Daphna's statement condemning Pete's decision to buy a cavapoo puppy rather than adopt from a shelter. Not long afterwards, he addressed the voicemail that said he wanted "a specific hypoallergenic dog" as he is allergic to most breeds. He believed adopting one "wasn't an option, and if it was, it was rare." “I haven’t seen my mom and sister cry like that in over 20 years. I was trying to cheer up my family. I was already upset that the store had filmed me without my permission or acknowledgment. Then this organization (PETA) made a public example of us, making our grieving situation worse. I am upset. It was a poor choice of words. I shouldn’t have

John Legend and Chrissy Teigen have welcomed baby number 4, through a surrogate. A baby boy named Wren Alexander Stephens.  He will be joining siblings Luna (7), Miles (5) and Esti (3 months). "For as long as I can remember, I've always wanted four children. As a little girl, 2 glow worms and 2 cabbage patch dolls were perpetually in my arms, helping me stir in my kitchen, watching Alf with me. We'd sleep together nightly, each getting the same amount of kisses as to note make the others jealous." "My mom always searched for the Pound Puppy with 4 pups in her pouch, having no qualms about opening and peeking inside before purchasing. After losing Jack, I didn't think I'd be able to carry any more babies on my own. To be honest, I've personally blocked out a lot of my mindset during that time, but one clear memory is being surrounded by people who wanted to make sure I wouldn't go through that pain and loss again."

Meryl Streep Among Other A-List Stars Are ‘Prepared’ To Strike

We ask that you push for all the change we need and protections we deserve and make history doing it. If you are not able to get all the way there, we ask that you use the power given to you by us, the membership, and join the WGA on the picket lines. For our union and its future, this is our moment. We hope that, on our behalf, you will meet that moment and not miss it.” They declared they are "prepared to strike if it comes to that" and are "concerned by the idea that SAG-AFTA (Screen Actors Guild — American Federation of Television and Radio Artists) members may be ready to make sacrifices that leadership is not.”  The letter requested negotiators do not settle
